[HD2 Android NAND Development] AngelDeath:
Let me say something here, I agree with both of you that the HD2 might not be at the same point of other native android phones as for speed locks and not being instant-on so to speak, but being that there are so many factors in this, I personally dont think we will ever get it to that point, not unless HTC releases a version for Android, just as they did with the brother version of the HD2 in china. Now that version being the brother if someone had installed that rom and lives in china we would have a better understanding if it worked properly and go by that. That not being the case, the closest comparing I can do is to the ATT Inspire (DHD) completely stock, unrooted, and untouched, and the closest to the HD2, and yes the DHD locks much faster then the HD2, but in reality we may never get the HD2 to that point.

And yes, doing a lock and then doing a lock a couple of hours later can give you a false reading, but on the other hand it might not, for the simple fact that before this whole project the GPS was erratic already, where you could get a lock, and then try again in 5 mins and get nothing. By making these scripts and "fine tuning" them we are at a point where we can at least get locks in 60 seconds or less, and re-locks in under 10 seconds. For the majority of the population I think thats pretty damn good. Considering that a standalone GPS unit cant even do that after its turned off and then on again.

This by no means, means to give up trying to improve what we have, but we should look at the accomplishment we have done already and what we provide, I even suggested to someone in the Inspire forum to try this because they were having trouble, and his first lock was in 22 seconds. Some people use their gps all the time, some dont, if someone uses theirs every 3 or 5 days and they keep gettting locks in 60 seconds or less when they first turn it on, I think thats a good thing.

All I'm trying to say before we were all trying to get "a Lock" with our android ports, now we're trying to match it to other phones speeds. Again I'm not saying give up, on improving it, its not perfect but it sure does work much better then before

Thats something I've been wanting to see as well, But everytime I run the logcat for GPS status I see nothing like this. What did you run on the other phone to see this info?

If you can confirm that line, then it poses me to ask this question: if you delete the "xtra.bin" file from the data folder, does that line download it to the data folder? The key reason is if it does not, then whats it doing with it? It would defeat the purpose if its just reading the file, which is where if that line works then "AGPS=/data/xtra.bin" should just as well. Remember that in WinMowe had QuickGPS and QuickGPS would pop up in the notification window reminding us to download the new information, this Qbann is the exact same thing, except it doesnt have a way to notify us.

And I have been thinking and reading different things as well, and I think the best way to compare would be to look at the inspire's rom or the libraries in it to the libraries we have and see if and what is missing. Someone in the Inspire forum made a CWR of the stock att rom rooted, so maybe looking at the files might help and compare the file. Another thing that I ran across, Arne you said that a sim card makes a difference, my Inspire doesnt have a sim card in it and I'm achieveing the locks. Having said that I would think that the lib's would have to reference the radio of the phone as well would it not?

I think 35s after 8 hours of non-use is great, see if you didnt use it for 24 or 48 hours if you would get the same thing, if you really dont use the gps, this way we can get a good idea as to the results, because if you still get that 2 days later I dont think we have too much room to complain :)
